Excerpt: ... tailings contained, and seldom as much as two ounces of gold." Prof. Raymond's Report, 1870, page 364: --"It is impossible to state accurately what percentage of gold is lost in milling, as few assays are made either of the crude ore or of the tailings; but that a very large amount is lost can.not be doubted, and this loss probably varies from thirty to seventy per cent., according to the nature of the ore. None of the silver is saved except a small quantity, which being obtained in the gold, merely diminishes the value of the latter metal." Fossett's Colorado, page 292: --"It is estimated that more gold has been wasted in milling and has been washed down the creeks and gulches than has been saved." Albert Reiehenecker see Appendix, page 80 et seq). "The proportion of gold saved on the plates and tables varies, in a well-constructed mill, between thirty and fifty per cent. of the whole amount of gold in the quartz, and may average forty per cent." Article XII. THE PRESENT CONDITION OF INDUSTRIAL GOLD MINING. It will be apparent from these brief outlines that gold mining as an industrial pursuit encompasses interests of immense importance when the whole field of enterprise is brought into Tiew. The sources of the metal are practically beyond the measure of any method of calculation. The great extent of mineral area, the cosmical profusion displayed in nature with reference to all deposits of useful metals and substances, the expansive surface exploited and depths attained by practical working in widely-varying and separated localities, all tend to demonstrate the number and magnitude of workable veins of gold. In connection with this, it is also apparent that great progress has.been made in structural and...

Book Synopsis Global Gold Production Touching Ground by : Boris Verbrugge
Download or read book Global Gold Production Touching Ground written by Boris Verbrugge. This book was released on 2020-05-04. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, gold mining has moved into increasingly remote corners of the globe. Aside from the expansion of industrial gold mining, many countries have simultaneously witnessed an expansion of labor-intensive and predominantly informal artisanal and small-scale gold mining. Both trends are usually studied in isolation, which contributes to a dominant image of a dual gold mining economy. Counteracting this dominant view, this volume adopts a global perspective, and demonstrates that both industrial gold mining and artisanal and small-scale gold mining are functionally integrated into a global gold production system. It couples an analysis of structural trends in global gold production (expansion, informalization, and technological innovation) to twelve country case studies that detail how global gold production becomes embedded in institutional and ecological structures.
